I would love if we could get back to some sense of normality where one of the benefits of the internet is to help parents find humorous and meaningful storybooks for their little ones. It’s original intention. Community across the globe. 🇨🇦✌️

At age 73, I published my first children’s book and seriously my timing could not have been worse. America is banning books, boycotting Amazon and Canada has a postal strike. It’s as if “What is a Beau?” Is public enemy number one. Be a rebel my friends and I dare you to even find a copy. ✊🇨🇦✌️

Use my voice the best I can as a 73 year old woman and write a child’s book about self discovery, acceptance and love. Hopefully to teach the next generation that we, as humans, have more in common than differences. 🇨🇦✌️

As a 72 year old independent children’s book author with abysmal sales, I’m now seriously considering creating a geriatric only fans page. Either that or standup comedian. Tick tock, tick tock.
What is a Beau? Available on Amazon. Yeah, the boycotted place. Timing is everything as they say. 🇨🇦✌️

Can I toot my own horn? Self published my first children’s book at age 72 and it has been absolutely brutal trying to promote this delightful tale of self discovery, acceptance and love in the present timeline. It’s available on Amazon. You know, the place everyone is boycotting. Jeepers. 🇨🇦✌️

This is wild. Me, a 72 year old children’s book author has been blocked by multiple people. I didn’t realize a child’s story about diversity, equity, inclusion and unconditional love would be such an affront on anyone’s sensibilities. I suppose my timing was off. Wrong century. 🇨🇦✌️

Hey Bluesky, do you ever wonder how self published authors sell books when they don’t have the backing or exposure or advertising or money from major mainstream publishing agencies? Yeah, I wonder that myself.
